If this is in the wrong place please move to ' Everything Else' but it is Games Related, and certainly valuable if you are a budding 3d designer wishing to get into industry. The AMD courses here are generally very good, but dont normally cross over. This one does, so here it is... UWE' s Bristol School of Animation has joined forces with Aardman Animations and MEDIA on the Storyboarding Competition 2007, an annual contest giving potential animators a chance to win professional training with a free place to study either 2D Drawn, 3D Puppet or 3D CGI (Maya) animation on UWE' s, Bristol School of Animation' s prestigious ' Three Month Animation Course' . This prize also includes the payment of accommodation costs for the duration of the eleven-week course.
The 2007 competition judges will include a Director from Aardman Animations and Animation staff from UWE. The judges will be looking for skills in the development and communication of a strong concept likely to influence international business. The storyboard will need to visually convey the plot and action of a scene, whole film or a commercial.
Entrants must produce an original and creative storyboard for a TV or film advertisement which could be used to promote the European animation industry to a worldwide market at international film fairs and business conferences. The animated advertisement will need to convince judges that it will successfully increase international circulation of European animation, for film, television and new media industries, emphasising the cultural diversity that Europe has to offer.
Closing date for entries to the Storyboard Competition is Friday 9 March 2007. For more information or to book up on the short course please contact us on:
